This is a division of my copending application Serial No. 479,144, filed March 13, 1943, now Patent No. 2,418,889, which is in turn a continuationin-part of my copending application Serial No. 456,267, entitled Dehydrogenation of hydrocarbons and catalysts therefor, filed August 26, 1942, now Patent No. 2,370,798.
This application contains a disclosure similar to that contained in the application of Kenneth K. Kearby, filed February 14, 1942, and assigned Serial No. 430,873, now Patent No. 2,395,875.
My present invention relates to catalytic dehydrogenation of hydrocarbons, and more particularly, it relates to improved catalysts for dehydrogenating olefins and aralkyl hydrocarbons, and to methods for preparing th said catalysts.
My present invention is particularly adapted to the dehydrogenation of low molecular weight olefin hydrocarbons having from 2 to 10, preferably 2 to 6, carbon atoms, but is also applicable to dehydrogenation of aralykyl hydrocarbons, such as ethyl and propyl benzene to form styrene and phenyl-methyl-ethylenes and to convert isopropyl benzene to methyl styrene.
Recently, processes designed to convert butene to butadiene have become of increased im-' portance due to the fact that 'butadiene is an essential intermediate in one of the more ixnportant methods for the production of synthetic rubber-like materials.
In the production of diolefins from olefins by the catalytic dehydrogenation of mono-olefins, it is, of course, desirable to obtain as high a yield of the diolefin as possible per one passage of the butene thru the dehydrogenation zone, and as a corollary to this purpose, it is also a desideratum to this type of process to obtain as small an amount as possible of by-products. It is also desirable to conduct the dehydrogenation under such conditions that the fouling of the catalyst is minimized to as great an extent aspossible. The efficiency of the catalyst is best measured in terms of per cent selectivity, which means the per cent of the total amount of initial material which undergoes conversion which is converted to the desired product. For example, if 50% of the initial material undergoes conversion of some sort, and of the initial material is converted to the desired product, then the selectivity would be 60.
I have now discovered a new type of catalyst which when used under certain conditions in the dehydrogenation of hydrocarbons makes it possible to obtain substantially greater yields of the desired dehydrogenation product than can be 4 Claims. (Cl. 252-2315) obtained by the use of previously known catalysts. The nature of this new type of catalyst and the conditions under which it is used will be fully understood from the following description.
In the above referred to Kearby application, there is disclosed a dehydrogenation catalyst which comprises magnesium oxide as a base material, iron oxide as an active ingredient, and'a small amount of a promoter which consists of an alkali or an alkaline earth oxide. In addition, the catalyst may contain a small amount of a stabilizer which stabilizer may consist of an oxide of a metal of the right-hand side (transition series) of groups I, II, and III of the periodic system or certain non-acidic oxides.
As pointed out in the aforesaid prior Kearby application, the principal function of the promoter in these catalysts is to increase the dehydrogenating activity of the catalyst. The principal function of the stabilizer, when used, is to prevent the promoter from volatilizing or becoming inactive.
In my present application I propose to use as a base beryllium oxide, and this material should constitute the major portion of the entire catalyst composition. The following table gives the range of each component which may be used:
Among the alkali metal and alkaline earth oxides which may be used as promoters are the oxides of calcium, strontium and sodium, but potassium oxide is greatly superior.
However, I wish to point out that some of the desired conversion is obtained by omitting the promoter and the stabilizer and compounding the catalyst only from the base and the active ingredients.
The following stabilizing oxides give good results: Oxides of metals of the right-hand side (transition series) of groups I, H, and III of the periodic system, particularly oxides of copper and silver; non-acidic transition oxides of chromium, manganese, cobalt and nickel; and nonacidic oxides of zirconium, cerium, lead, bismuth, and particularly A; and T1102.
In place of the iron oxide in the above type of catalyst, oxides of chromium and manganese also form good catalysts. Nickel and cobalt oxides give less selective catalysts. Effective catalysts are obtained with all 01' these active ingredients but oxides of iron and chromium are preferred.
The activity of the catalyst can be improved by including a fifth component, viz., 1% by weight of silica gel, i. e., 99% of the 4 components mentioned above and 1% v of silica gel.
One particularly effective catalyst of the above type, including the promoter and the stabilizer,
- has the following composition:
Component: Parts by weight ZBeO 80 FezOs 20 K20 5 CuO 5 The above catalyst may conveniently be prepared as follows: I
Example 80 BEO Pecos-5 CuO-5 Kid A solution of 209 grams of ferric nitrate and 38.5 grams oi. copper nitrate in 1 liter of H10 was stirred into a suspension of 355 grams of hydrated beryllium oxide (47.7% loss on ignition) in 2 liters of water. A solution of 170 grams of K260: in 200 cc. of water was added and the mixture stirred for 1 hour at 8090 C. The precipitate was filtered, thoroughly washed, and mixed with of butene-2) was passed for one hour at a rate ofv 800 volumes (normal temperature and pressure) per volume of catalyst per hour, with 5600 volumes of steam over the catalyst whose preparation was described in the above example, at a temperature of 1200 F. The amount of butene converted to butadiene was 29.2%, with a total conversion of 39% and a selectivity of 75%.
At lower conversions of about -30%, selectivities of 80% can be obtained when the lower conversion is obtained by reducing the temperature or increasing the through-put.
In carrying out the process using catalysts of the type above described, the hydrocarbon, preferably with steam, is passed over the catalyst at a rate between 50 and 5000, preferably between 100 and 1000 volumes (measured at normal temperature and pressure) of hydrocarbon per volume of catalyst per hour. The ratio of steam to hydrocarbon is between :1 and 1:1, preferably from 8:1 to 4:1. The reaction chamber is maintained at atemperature between 1000 and 1600 F., preferably between 1100 and 1300 F. and under atmospheric, below atmospheric or above atmospheric pressure. The hydrocarbon which passes through the reaction zone unaifected may of course be recycled thereto.
The principal function of the steam is to dilute the hydrocarbon and thus reduce the partial pressure thereof in the reaction zone. At the same time, however, the steam performs another useful function in that it reacts with coke which may be deposited on the catalyst to form carbon oxides and hydrogen. The elimination of at least a portion of the coke in this manner tends to prolong the time the catalyst can be used before it requires regeneration. Thus the reaction portion of a complete cycle of reaction and regeneration may be as long as 15, 25 or hours or more although it is usually preferable in operation to run for periods of V hour to 10 hours and then regenerate.
Regeneration of the catalyst may be effected by shutting oi! the flow of hydrocarbon and passing steam, air, or a mixture of steam and air through the catalyst mass while it is maintained at a temperature between 1100 F. and 1300 F. Following substantially complete removal of coke from the catalyst in this manner, the flow of hydrocarbon and steam may be resumed,
My present invention may be carried out either in the stationary bed type of operation or a fluid catalyst type of operation. In the former, the catalyst is contained in a case or reactor and the mixture of steam and hydrocarbon is simply forced through the material, preferably being discharged into the top, forced through the catalyst,
and withdrawn from the bottom. The catalyst is preferably in the form of pellets, pills, granules, and the like. In the fluid catalyst type of operation, the catalyst is in the form of a powder having a particle size of from 100 to 400 mesh and is discharged into the reaction zone from a standlyst in the gases of a concentration such that each cubic foot contains from 2 to 35 or more,
pounds of catalyst. This dense phase may be formed within the reaction zone above the grid by controlling the linear velocity of gases or vapors by regulating them within the range of say to 8 to 10 ft./sec. Continuity of operation a beryllium oxide base in addition to iron oxide,
and, usually an oxide of iron, chromium, manganese, cobalt or nickel, a small amount of a promoter and/or a stabilizer. An outstanding advantage of my invention is that I may carry out the dehydrogenation of a hydrocarbon in the presence of large quantities of steam without inuring the catalyst and thus I may greatly extend the life of catalysts since the presence of steam tends to retard the deposition of hydrocarbon contaminants upon the catalyst. Also, the presence of steam makes it possible to supply the heat necessary for this highly endothermic reaction by the superheating of the said steam at least in substantial part and also makes it possible, particularly with the stationary bed type of operation, to control the contact'time since dilution with steam of the entering reactant makes it possible to vary the reaction time virtually to any desired value regardless of how small that contact time interval may be. I'claim: 1. A catalyst composition adapted to ca the dehydrogenation of mono-oleflns and alkylated aromatics having at least 2 carbon atoms in a side chain which consists essentially of 50 to- 3. A catalyst adapted to dehydrogenate monooleiins and alkylated aromatics having at least 2 carbon atoms in the side chain which consists essentially of 50 to 9'! parts by weight of beryllium oxide. 3 to 50 parts by weight of iron oxide, 3 to 15 parts by weight of potassium oxide, and 1 to 15 parts by weight of copper oxide.
4. A catalyst adapted to dehydrogenate monooleilns and alkylated aromatics having at least 2 carbon atoms in the side chain which consists essentially of 80 parts by weight of beryllium oxide, 20 parts by weight of iron oxide, 5 parts by weight or potassium oxide and 5 parts by weight of copper oxide.
